Global regulators advocate for stricter oversight of tokenized stocks in SEC letter

Global regulators including ESMA, IOSCO, and WFE have urged the SEC to tighten oversight of tokenized stocks, citing investor risks. These organizations argue that despite resembling traditional stocks, tokenized equities lack necessary protections, potentially jeopardizing investors’ interests.

The tokenized assets market has surpassed 26 billion USD, with tokenized stocks emerging as a small yet rapidly growing segment. Major players such as Coinbase, Kraken, and Robinhood are entering this space, indicating a significant future expansion despite regulatory concerns.
